What anti-inflammatory medication should I take for a sore throat?
Disease description:
I might have caught a chill the day before yesterday, causing a sore throat and cough. I would like to ask what medicine would be better for treating an inflamed throat?

There are several types of anti-inflammatory medications that can be taken for a sore throat, mainly including the following categories:
1. Cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs: Such as Cefradine and Cefixime, these have a broad antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial capabilities, working by disrupting bacterial cell walls to inhibit bacterial growth.
2. Penicillin anti-inflammatory drugs: Such as Amoxicillin and Potassium Penicillin V tablets, these work by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls.
3. Macrolide anti-inflammatory drugs: Such as Clarithromycin and Azithromycin, these primarily function by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis.
4. Quinolone anti-inflammatory drugs: Such as Norfloxacin and Levofloxacin, these damage bacterial DNA and are suitable for individuals over 18 years of age who are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
It is recommended to choose the appropriate medication based on the specific condition and medical advice.
